    Why are you raising preflop?

    Seriously... fold that preflop. Fold to the raise on the flop.

    That is not a good hand pre-flop, you have almost no draws...if you don't hit a K that hand is absolutely useless. That flop is also bad, you hit trip 2s but you are already losing and basically dead to anyone holding a A2, Q2 or with QQ.

    As I see it you can't call, you have almost nothing and are probably drawing dead to a King if you do call.

    Well there is no shame in being bluffed off this pot, you were ahead but not by that much. When I play omaha I usually like to have at least a draw at the nuts, here you were just in a bad position. Obviously your opponent shouldn't have played the hand either, and showed you the bluff either to show off or put you on tilt.
